Fox Flexplate Question

[Mstng93SSP]

I am going to upgrade my torque converter and the new one says the bolts and holes are bigger, 7/16 so is there a flexplate with holes to accommodate the 7/16 bolts already or do you guys who upgrade just drill the stock plate holes out bigger. And if you do drill them out, does it need to be done on a drill press or can a hand drill do the job.

Thanks

Chris

As long as the bolt holes line up,(just needing to be drilled bigger) then yes, I'd use a hand drill to enlarge the existing ones.
